Shorty’s Progress

My interview with Chaka Khan is the cover story for N’Digo this week.  Check it out here. I am having the hardest time getting my book published from Blogapalooza.  There is always some technical glitch.  If I just knew I wasn’t close to where God would have me to be, I would probably freak out.  [...]

Why People Can’t Progress Financially

I picked up a friend yesterday who was experiencing car troubles.  While driving home, he said that he was almost finished paying off two car notes, which I thought was a great blessing.  He then said, “I might buy that truck I want.”  I wanted to come to a screeching halt like Fred Flinstone and [...]

Price vs. Value

I was having a conflict about what to charge for my blogging service.  Initially, I was setting my rates according to other people’s opinions about the economy.  That was not good.  I was going to charge at least $25 per hour less than what I really wanted to get paid. Fortunately,  I met with Lester [...]

Gotta Stop Cursing

I told my little sister I would stop cursing, but I really don’t want to right now. But I will. I have to be a positive role model. And, if I hear her cursing I am almost certain I will be on channels 2,5,7,9 and FOX because old school traditions will kick in. So, to [...]

I’m Learning How & When to Speak Up

There was a conversation I needed to have that stressed me out for a couple months.  The emotions were high because it was someone really close to me.  It turned out OK. After that conversation, I’m finding it very easy to say what I need to say to other people.  Not that it is disrespectful; [...]

Things I Hate

I hate when people argue with me about things I know that are absolutely true. I hate when people tell me things about me even though they have not a clue about me or what I do. I hate the parking meters in Chicago. I hate the low status of black people in America even [...]

Having Faith is NOT Easy

I am so close to my goals. I just know it.  The Write Design Company is going to take off really soon.  Shorty: Your Chicago South Side Resource is a close second. I just need a little marketing assistance to get me there.  I’m actually getting it, but until it comes to fruition, I just have [...]

People Get Real Shitty Over E-mail

Yet, they say things and approach you a way they probably wouldn’t in person. There is a person who I have the utmost respect for a professional and colleague. She always reviews my writings when I request her assistance. So, when she asks me to write comments on her blogs, I have no problems.  Well, [...]

Ok, I’m Ready

I’ve been on some major bullshit and I’m so over it.  I have been wasting time trying to figure out why I do not like speaking in front of a camcorder instead of just flowing.  I can do this.  I don’t know what I’m afraid of.  It’s so stupid.  I wonder how many steps ahead [...]
